The Spectacular Spectres of Toronto’s Landmarks

Halloween is this Friday and to celebrate I picked my five favourite haunted places in Toronto for the Musings Blog. Did you know that One Toronto Street is located on the site of Toronto’s first hanging grounds? That University College at UofT is haunted by the ghost of a murdered stonemason and to this day, you can still see his axe mark in the door? The next time you’re enjoying a steak dinner at the Keg Mansion peruse through their “ghost log” where visitors have left accounts of their own paranormal experiences, and ladies, make sure to take a friend to the washroom with you. As October 31 marks the day that spirits and ghosts come out to play, be wary when walking around Toronto late at night, you never know who you might meet.
